The Mérode Altarpiece While the Mérode Altarpiece is definitely not the most aesthetically beautiful piece of art I have been introduced to this summer‚ it is my favorite for many reasons. After looking deeper into the painting and learning of the symbolism and background of it‚ I began to find myself really interested in it.
